New Yard Art
« on: August 08, 2011, 06:36:58 PM »
We just purchased this 1964 Falcon Sprint last week. Tag on the car is 1980 so we know its been sitting at least 31 years.  The car has a 260 and 2 speed trans. As you can tell the driver side taillight is a slightly melted was sitting next to a house years ago that caught fire. Some of the floor pans are rotted out and rodents had a field day in the interior. Otherwise the rest of the car seems pretty solid.

Awesome find
Love building rat rods, driving mustangs, and building websites.

I like the Gasser idea but gotta stay focused on the sedan right now. May find a new home for it if we can make a few extra bills off it.
